TORONTO - Entering his final year on the job, Blue Jays president Paul Beeston is trying to bring another all-star game to Toronto, grow grass in the Rogers Centre and put a playoff team on the stadium's new artificial turf.

The Council of Canadians has filed a complaint with the Public Prosecution Service over the Crown’s move to seek a longer sentence for robocall culprit Michael Sona while the “ringleaders of the election fraud campaign” remain at large.

The Crown filed notice Monday that it will seek to lock up Michael Sona for longer than nine months for his role in a robocall that sent hundreds of opposition supporters to the wrong polling station in Guelph, Ont.

Michael Sona could be out of jail on Friday afternoon after his lawyer launches an appeal of his conviction and sentence for his role in sending a robocall that directed voters to the wrong polling station in Guelph, Ont.

How many lone outlaws can pop up on how many grassy knolls before a series of supposedly isolated incidents coagulate into one large, collectively worn blob of disreputability?
This is the question that emerges, again, in the wake of Michael Sona’s sentencing to nine months in prison and a subsequent year’s probation for his role in the robocalls affair, which saw thousands of voters in Guelph, Ont.
